  • Complete pre-discharge inspections and authorise tanker unloading only when all hygiene and safety checks have been satisfied.
  • Maintain accurate operational records and work in accordance with health, safety, environmental, and water quality regulations.
  • Support emergency response activities to ensure the safe and reliable delivery of potable water.

Essential Requirements
  • Full, valid UK driving licence.
